2 Drawer Chest of Drawers

A standard 2 drawer chest of drawers is typically between 60cm and 80cm wide, 40cm to 50cm deep and 60cm to 75cm tall. Exact dimensions vary by model, so always check the product specification before purchasing, particularly if the unit needs to fit a specific space.

A 2 drawer chest can work well as the sole storage unit in a small single or guest bedroom, or as a secondary piece alongside a larger chest. For a main bedroom used by one or two adults, it is more likely to serve as supplementary storage rather than a standalone solution.

Yes, a compact 2 drawer chest can double as a bedside table if the height suits your mattress level, typically between 55cm and 65cm. It provides more storage than a standard bedside cabinet and the top surface works well for a lamp, phone and other bedside essentials.

White and grey painted finishes are the most popular as they suit most room styles and are easy to coordinate with existing furniture. Oak effect finishes are a good choice for warmer, more natural interiors. The best finish depends on where the unit will be used and what other furniture is in the room.

Ensure the unit is assembled correctly with all fixings fully tightened. Place it on a flat, level surface and use adjustable feet if the floor is uneven. Anti-tip furniture straps, which fix the unit to the wall, are also worth using particularly in rooms used by children.
